They have maintained that they do not want to raise their child on social media.

The couple dated for 16 years before deciding to tie the knot on the 6th of September 2014. It was actually one of their daughters who ‘pressured’ them into getting married.

Controversies

Jessica Gadsden has been drawn into some controversies, thanks to her outspoken husband. During an interview on the Brilliant IdiotsPodcast in 2017, Charlamagne tha God seemed to suggest that his first sexual encounter with his wife was technically rape. His comment stemmed from a discussion on the Me Too Movement and whether drunk sex should be considered rape. His statement led to an uproar and some called for him to be axed. Jessica Gadsden, however, called into The Breakfast Club to provide explanations. She stated that their first sexual encounter could not be considered as rape because, even though they were both drunk, they were coherent and knew what they were doing.
